I think that I have previously read reports of snow occasionally falling on the tops of peaks in the North of Thailand during winter (but I maybe wrong)

Has it ever snowed anywhere in Thailand? Has anyone experienced any snow falls in Thailand?

PRAVDA.....

Russian tourists were surprised to see snow in "Thailand"

The pilot had to return to Ekaterinburg airport because one of the passenger jet's engines had stopped working.

But he forgot to tell the 350 passengers who thought they had arrived in Thailand after the six hour flight.

"They were shocked to see so much snow in 'Thailand'," reports Pravda.

The passengers rested at a hotel at the airport before leaving again for Thailand several hours later.

The day it snowed in Thailand

"Snowfall caresses Chiang Rai" on January 8, 1955 at 18:00. -

This is a photograph of winter in Chiang Rai in 1955. On that day, January 8 at 18.00 after rain, small hail and ice flakes that looked like snow fell and made a white color on the ground. (Lower right) This was taken on the next day 14 hours after the snow fell there
was still snow on the ground. After 38 hours the snow melted.

Amazing. I thought maybe on Doi Intanon but not in chaing rai.
